In November 2013, Yahoo hired high-profile TV news anchor Katie Couric to be its “global anchor,” a nebulous position that company CEO Marissa Mayer said would involve “being the face of Yahoo News and shooting features for our homepage.” Couric was compensated handsomely for the deal, receiving $6 million per year,…

Roughly a year and a half ago, Yahoo dot com hired Katie Couric to do some stuff for them. Since then, Couric has landed some high-profile interviews, which has apparently warranted her a pay bump from $6 million a year to $10 million a year, despite the lack of originality in her content or an indication that a lot…

On his show last night, John Oliver did the best interview with Edward Snowden conducted so far, as well as the only one involving both a picture of John Oliver’s penis and a pair of stars-and-stripes patterned truck nuts. It was a triumph of both journalism and artful dick metaphors.

Community returns for its sixth season on March 17th at its new home on Yahoo!, which is exciting, but—as Ben Chang points out—are any of you white people noticing what's happening to the group? Troy's gone, Shirley's gone and—wait, who is this white Shirley who keeps showing up?

Yahoo blew its load Monday morning, releasing the new Taylor Swift video for "Blank Space" before it was ready. They pulled the video, but it's still making its way around the internet (Update: it is now live and embedded below), and is (like the song) a fuck you to all those people who think Taylor is (in her words)…

Feminism: Taking rights from men and giving them to women; turning once pleasure-giving women into lazy, demanding princesses. Hold up, though: MIT and PrincetonMen's Health and Yahoo! have some tips for getting us back on track.

As fervent Tumblr users already know, their beloved Internet home, replete with reality TV gifs and hashtag-confessions of a hashtag-teenage-tumblr-queen, has a new landlord. Yahoo announced a $1.1 billion deal Monday that will bring Tumblr under the corporation's wing. Though Yahoo CEO Marissa Mayer promised "not to…

In a move that many aficionados of American capitalism are already lauding as really, really smart, Yahoo CEO Marissa Mayer, the boss who loves her employees so much she wants to see them in the office all the time, has expanded the amount of paid maternity and paternity leave Yahoo employees receive.

An article called "Stars Who Embrace Their Imperfections — Not Your Average Hollywood Lookers" is obviously going to be idiotic because, Jesus Christ, "perfect" is hardly even a real thing. I know, I know — symmetry and proportions and blah blah blah, but when it comes to real life and real attraction, all of that…

In her effort to be the cool new Yahoo boss who has pre-cocktail hour cocktails at two and designates the third Wednesday of every month as Cookie Potluck Day, Marissa Mayer recently sent a memo to all full time (and part time!) Yahoo employees in the US informing them Oprah-style that they all get...smartphones!! Not…
